Evening: Psalm 89:19-52; Luke 16:19-31
Some are so certain of their views that they are closed to other possibilities. Jesus says that someone who fails to listen to the wisdom of great teachers will also resist the mysteries of God. In my childhood home closed-minded people were said to be “wise in their own conceits.” I discovered later that this phrase comes from the Book of Proverbs’ (26:12): “Do you see persons wise in their own conceit? There is more hope for fools than for them.” Even if someone actually rises from the dead you may not succeed in convincing some people of it.
